what makes you
happiest?
A few things:
returning to the trailhead after a long
hike, eating a giant taco, early Saturday morning adventures
with my boyfriend, finishing
a project, and giving somebody a gift they didn’t ask for but totally love.
do
you have a ‘happy place’?
Yes! It is inside a
warm tent during the afternoon with the rain fly off so I can see the trees and
sky. I like to lay on my back and enjoy the quiet while I relax after a long
hike or day of driving. It is so nice to be camping, and that’s where I’m
happiest. It could be in the desert,
the
Sierras, or even the valley of Zion
National Park.
do
you have a favourite happy song?
I don’t think I have
one song that triggers happiness, to be honest. I do perk up when there is a
song that makes me want to dance like an idiot (confession: I’m terrible at
dancing and look like an idiot no matter what). I really enjoy listening to NSFW
music at my desk early in the morning and late in the afternoon above the
appropriate volume as my little form of rebellion. I don’t think anybody
actually cares, but I feel like such a rebel!
what gets you past a bad
day?
Quite honestly, it
is the blogging community, Campfire
Chic readers, and the silly people who connect with me on Twitter! I
have quite a few of those days at my day job, and all I need to do is check my
email or Twitter account and somebody is doing something amazing, saying
something that makes me laugh-snort all over my keyboard, or passing along
articles from the past that I wrote to other people. It’s so encouraging to know
that I’m a part of something bigger than my cubicle walls.

what makes you happiest?
A lot of things make me happy, but I'd have to say the happiest is when I'm outside with my husband and our pets. Taking in the smells, the sun beating down, and just spending time with one another without focusing on the responsibilities we have.

do you have a ‘happy place’?
My true happy place is on the beach by the ocean, but living in Wisconsin it isn't always possible to get there. So my second happy place is on my bed, curled up in the corner against the wall with the pillows and blankets as I read.

do you have a favourite happy song?
I listen to a lot of sad music, haha. But one of my favorite songs that always puts me in a good mood (even though it's a rather bittersweet song) is Annie Lennox - Into the West.

what gets you past a bad day?
A good book or a good movie. Something that
allows me to escape from whatever was troubling me without really avoiding it,
but rather getting lost in a story and walking away feeling refreshed. It
usually makes whatever was bothering me seem less stressful and I'm better able
to handle it.
